Puerto Sagua

After all that heavy shopping

went to have dinner at a Cuban diner

called Puerto Sagua
- popular place

- not paid much attention to the interior,

authentically old

- funny, very kitcsh-style pictures on the walls

.

Fried yuca

with garlic-lemon sauce

- didn't like it, almost like deep-fried potatoe
.

Yuca:

This fibrous root vegetable is often served

battered and fried,

like a thick French fry,

or boiled and doused with garlic sauce

.

Salad was good & tasty

- very fresh
.

Pollo asado
= rosted chicken
- delicious!
- not dry at all, tasty & juicy
.

Side dish:
white rice, fried plantain...
. ...black beans
- very similar to Bahamian kitchen

there rice & beans were mixed together
.

Rice is a staple of Floribbean cooking

- served with black beans: Cuban,

pigeon peas: Jamaican,

red beans: Cajun
